New iPad2 will not sync with iTunes 9.2.1.

Have tried every thing but it will not sync. I'm running iMac 10.4.11 and cannot run the latest iTunes because it requires 10.5 to run. Have I purchased something which I cannot use.

I don't know how easy it is to upgrade Macs as I've only had mine a short time (so probably know more than me), hopefully somebody on here will have suggestions for the best way to do so - so I don't know whether you need this http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC680Z/A?n=osx&fnode=MTY1NDAzOA&mco=MTk0MjIyNz c&s=topSellers, or whether you can get away with this http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573Z/A?n=osx&fnode=MTY1NDAzOA&mco=MTc1MTEzNj Y&s=topSellers (one of the questions/answers below it implies that it's ok)

    My new iPad will not sync with itunes. itunes is updated to latest version. Do I need to uninstall itunes and reinstall?

    That could be a solution. Are you getting any error messages or error codes? Is the iPad recognized in iTunes? Does anything happen at all when you try to Sync? Can you provide more details?
    You can try a very simple first step, quit iTunes, reboot your PC and restart the iPad.

    my new ipad will not sync with itunes.  the device does not show up in itunes.  I am on a Windows system

    Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded?  If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized.  With iTunes open, click on Store at the top.  Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them.  Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.

  • New ipad will not sync with itunes, despite having sufficient capacity

    Trying to sync our brand new iPad 3 with our Mac's iTunes.  iTunes keeps giving me blurb:
    "The iPad cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the selected items."
    HOWEVER, the rainbow capacity bar at the bottom of iTunes shows that we are attempting to sync 27.95 GB worth of stuff, leaving 17.6 GB of free space.
    That doesn't look "full" to me....!
    What now?

    I have the same problem!
    My PC crashed and I had to upgrade my motherboard. Music and photos are still intact as they were stored on a separte hard drive (but had to re-do some playlists!). The apps were affected so I had to download purchased apps again from iTunes, not much of a problem there.
    Now that I've tried syncing the iPad to my PC, I got the same error as Tiki's that "The iPad cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the selected items."
    What to do????

  • My Ipod will not sync with Itunes - PLEASE HELP

    I have a bunch of songs on my ipod that I have from my previous computer and they will not sync with Itunes on my new computer. I have authorized the computer, I have also selected the "transfer purchases from ipod" option, I have spent the last day reading through FAQs but have found no solution. How do I fix the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

    The transfer purchases option only works with music purchased from iTunes and you don't say if this is the case.
    Here's some other option for Windows users.
    First, try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • HT1414 My Nano will not sync with iTunes.

    Nano will not sync with iTunes.  I get an error to retry or to reinstall.  I've tried most of the troubleshooting suggestions on the website.  I have not reinstalled.  My iPhone and iPad both sync with no issues.  The computer recognizes the Nano.  Is reinstalling my only option?  This started when I tried to update my devices with new music.  I noticed the error the next morning before my run and my Nano all the sudden had no music.  Went to re-sync and I received the error.

    It could be a number of issues, such as the soddering that connects the 30-pin adapter that then connects to your computer could have come loose. However that is unlikely unless you have dropped your device a lot. But for anyone to be of more assistance you will need to provide more information. Such as: does the divice still show up in iTunes? If not then you may have to put it into DUF mode, or you could bring it in to your nearest apple store and see how much help they can be. Caution: once in DUF mode you should be able to restore the device to its orginal settings and the newest software, but you will have to re-sync your libary, redo all of your selections ect. unless you have a local backup on your coumputer which you should be able to acess by [option]-click the restore button and selecting the latest backup, (at least I believe its [option]-click).
    Hope this helps.

    iphone 5 will not sync with itunes stating that I must update itunes to 10.7, itunes tells me it is up to date at 10.6. How can I get my new phone to sync with old computer?

    You need to install Mac OS X 10.6, which requires an Intel Mac and at least 1GB RAM.

  • My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore.  I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689"  firewall is off

    My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore.  I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689"  firewall is turned off.. Any ideas?

    Thanks Rudegar,
    I only synch and do not stream off of my 1st Gen AppleTV
    I will try with ethernet but will be a pain in the butt if i can not fix it with wifi for long term fix
    I may end up trying to do a named IP address vs DHCP for this appleTV (not sure if i can do both and do not want to remove DHCP as i have a bunch of sensors and other devices that I prefer to dynamically add to the network via DHCP vs. assign each one
    Will keep working on other fix options (factory reset, etc.)
    Thanks again

  • HT1386 iphone will not sync with itunes the apple sign just keeps popping up

    iphone will not sync with itunes or ture on only with it on a charger but will only keep popping up the apple sign or on acation show iso6 on screen and say sync with conputer but as soon as i take it off yhe charger it wont do anything

    I followed the instructions in those 2 articles. Still not able to see the device in ITunes. I reinstalled the latest iTunes and all updates to my iMac (Mac OSX ver 10.6.8). I tried 3 different USB Cables in different USB ports. Rebooting both the Iphone and IMac. Still nothing seems to be working. I searched the discussion boards and I see other people with the same problem but they seem to run into the same problems finding a solution. I dont understand what happened because this was working properly up until 2 days ago. Do you have any more suggestions?
